My Project

My students are an incredible group of enthusiastic learners who love good books with characters that reflect who they are. This group of phenomenal students possess the abilities to learn in any context. It is amazing to witness the excitement on their faces when the characters share common lives and interests.

It is super important for them to understand that they are capable of becoming authors and illustrators in their own light.

They make me super proud to be their teacher! I am so grateful to share learning with this group of kiddos!
